Scope:

ASTM D6370-99 test method is used to determine the composition of rubber. The information obtained from this test is used in quality control, material screening, and other occasions where a compositional analysis or comparison to a known material is required. This test method is not suitable for rubber compounds containing filler materials that decompose in the temperature range of 50 to 800°C.

Test Procedure:

In ASTM D6370-99 test method, a rubber test sample is placed in the platinum pan of the calibrated Thermogravimetric Analyzer (TGA). Argon or nitrogen purge is applied. The sample is heated to 50°C, and the instrument is allowed to equilibrate for at least 2 min. It is heated from 50 to 560°C at 10°C/min. The sample is cooled to 300°C and allowed to equilibrate for at least 2 min. The purge gas is changed to air or oxygen. The sample is heated from 300 to 800°C at 10°C/min.

Specimen Size:

The following information is reported:

Identification of the test sample. Percentage of organics, carbon black, and ash found.
